Emptying the lawn irrigation system with compressed air - instructions for frost protection

Emptying the lawn irrigation system with compressed air - instructions for frost protection

1 View

In this video, I show you step by step how I made my lawn irrigation system frost-proof for the winter. I use a special construction to blow the water out of the pipes using compressed air. This method effectively protects the irrigation system from frost damage and extends its service life. The installation is permanent and can be easily replicated.

Why does the lawn irrigation system need to be drained in winter?
Water that remains in the pipes can freeze during frost and cause expensive damage. By draining the system in good time, you avoid cracks and leaks and save yourself costly repairs.

Why is blowing out with compressed air the best solution?
In contrast to other methods, compressed air completely removes water from all areas of the system, even from hard-to-reach places. If the air pressure on the compressor is set correctly, the method remains safe for the pipes and sprinklers.


Important notes:
πŸ‘‰The air pressure should be regulated down to prevent damage to the pipes and sprinklers.
πŸ‘‰An oil-free compressor and an upstream water separator protect the pipes from contamination and moisture.

By blowing out the lawn irrigation system with compressed air, you can ensure that your system works perfectly again in spring.
